of leaf names in a stem variable via %var, the builtin functions 'count'
and 'contains', and an initial interface between qw-server and GIB to allow
querying of clients and their info strings. Also cleaned up the chat event
interface a bit. Renamed a few builtins.
time to what the server thinks is correct when too much inaccuracy
builds up. This nearly eliminates all speed cheating, both normal and
reverse, except for a brief burst before the protection kicks in. Might
need cleaning up/tweaking.
the problems associated with signed chars being used to index arrays. must
cast to usigned char so the bit expansion is done on an unsigned value to
avoid the sign extension.
realtime back caused the problems with clients not reconnect on map change
and after my preliminary mucking around with time, I'm convinced there's a
better way.
add dstring_replace. this replaces a string of lenth rlen at position
pos with data of lenth len, growing, shrinking and shuffling data as
appropriate. At this rate, the dstring `class' will get buffer gap
editing capabilities :)
cmd.c:
Cmd_TokenizeString builds cmd_active_buffer->line again.
Cmd_Process bails out instantly if cmd_active_buffer is a legacy buffer
and uses dstring_replace to modify the parameters in
cmd_active_buffer->line. This last change results in drastic
simplification (and accuracy) of the commandline reconstruction code,
both in Cmd_TokenizeString and Cmd_Process.
now recycled, not freed. Fixed some bugs in exp.c. Ready to add embeded
functions (read: function calls with return values) and for loops.
Probably some other misc. fixes, I tend to go on debugging streaks.
Changed Cmd_TokenizeString to accept a flag that controls the application
of filters (tags, variables, escape characters) to the tokens and modified
a few places in the source that called it. Added a secondary command
buffer that is parsed without filters for legacy command support.
Currently, it is only used for commands stuffed into the console from the
server. It is hacky, and I hope to eventually generalize the console
interface to support any number of buffers and audit the rest of the code
to recognize it. For now, the legacy buffer at least keeps escape
character parsing from destroying info strings.
code cleanups and general performance work to be developed in relative peace.
While cleaning up the networking code /is/ important, fixing QF's perfomance
issues is of much higher priority.
